Cuts of Pork/Cortes de Puerco

Cuts of Pork/Cortes de Puercoby Victoria Challancin

Many readers of this blog, especially Americans living in Mexico, have asked me to post a list of cuts of pork in English and Spanish. These terms are based on use in Mexico. In Spain, it may be more common to use carne de cerdo instead of carne de puerco when referring to pork.

About Me

San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Mexico

Welcome to my site:
I am an American who has lived abroad for the last 37 years. For the last twenty five years, I have lived in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, where I own Flavors of the Sun International Cooking School. The other twelve years were spent living in the Middle East and Europe or simply on the road traveling internationally.
I also lead small groups each year to Morocco, Paris, and Istanbul, with new destinations planned. While food is never far from my heart, these are not culinary trips. Rather, they are specialized and customized journeys designed to help the traveler extract as much as possible from the cultures, countries, and cities we visit.
This blog has basically grown out of my love for food, travel, and requests from clients and friends to share information, tips, and recipes.
